Poverty is one of the most important challenges of urbanization today. The fuzzy method was used to scale the indicators, the factor analysis method was used to measure poverty and the Moran spatial correlation method was used for spatial analysis. According to the results, the situation of some indicators such as livelihood burden, dependency burden, total unemployment, rented housing, aging rate, and divorce ratio has worsened compared to before. In the zoning of 1390, about 32.52% of the population and 26.12% of the area were in the poverty zone, while in 2016, this amount increased to 75.44% of the population and 48.22% of the area. Also, the growth of the number of blocks, area, population, and household in very poor and impoverished areas has been more than affluent and very affluent areas. A comparison of the percentage change of each of the four variables shows that the largest change is primarily related to the household variable and the population in the very poor area, which grew by 201 and 183%, respectively, and secondly by the household and population located in It is a poor area that grew by 163 and 135 percent, respectively. According to the results of the Moran model, urban poverty in both 1390 and 1395 in Gorgan has a pattern of cluster distribution and spatial correlation.

Urban public spaces are considered as one of the most important urban spheres, with the highest number of encounters and interactions among individuals. Therefore, proper use and quality of public space is an important issue to be taken into consideration. Due to this, the use of public spaces by women is sometimes influenced by socio-physical factors, which makes an obstacle to the use of these spaces for them. The purpose of this research was to measure the sense of safety in urban spaces for women. This research is a type of quantitative research and in terms of data collection method, it is considered as descriptive-analytic research.Questionnaire containing 61 questions was designed about urban spaces including squares, streets and parks in Amol, and distributed among 450 respondents. Data collected has been analyzed by SPSS, and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and Kruskal-Wallis test was used. The results of the research show that there is a significant difference between the components of the sense of safety and the attitude of women in urban spaces. Results of the analysis by the priority of each component regarding the degree of satisfaction of women with the quality of public spaces in different areas show that in the streets and parks the least feeling of safety and the highest share of the satisfaction of women from the public spaces is in the squares. Finally, there is a significant difference between Women's attitude on sensing safety in urban spaces and variables such as age, education, occupation, and the frequency of use of urban public spaces per week.
